Battle Rifles are a peculiar class of rifles in Modern Warfare 3 that seems to sit somewhere in between Light Machine Guns and Assault Rifles. This weapon platform tends to sport higher damage than its AR counterparts but has significantly less recoil control. Those of you diving into this weapon category may have come across the BAS-B, an all-around great gun for almost any situation.
The BAS-B is a Battle Rifle you will unlock upon reaching Level 17 in Modern Warfare 3. It is a great rifle, sporting the highest fire rate and the best level of handling, range, and mobility in its weapon category. Though many Assault Rifles are by far the more popular choice, the BAS-B can be devastatingly good with the best attachments.

The above Perk Package has a lot of resemblance to some of our Assault Rifle loadouts. For the most part, we aim to focus on boosting mobility, which is where the Infantry Vest and Lightweight Boots come in. Scavenger Gloves are also a definite must for almost any loadout, especially if you find yourself running out of ammunition quickly. The Mag Holster is crucial for the BAS-B, as its reload speed is painfully slow.
Recommended Secondary
The BAS-B can hold its own quite well in Modern Warfare 3’s Multiplayer, making it the only go-to weapon for this loadout. With that being the case, you are free to run a launcher like the PILA, which should be used specifically for targeting enemy killstreaks.
